Re: New Vintage Pics thread

Thank you thank you! Oh Mon Dieu indeed! Love some vintage gay porn. I know we have it somewhat better these days as far as being free. However, I just watched a fabulous documentary on gay sex in the 70's and made me long for the day when we could just be wild and crazy without worrying about Hiv/Aids! Not trying to rain on the parade but this vintage porn takes me to that place that I will never experience! Thank U!

Vintage porn? Do you mean overweight thirty year olds in posing straps? Then there was an improvement - younger guys showing cock, but still most photos were in black and white and most of the magazine consisted of bogus praise of "nudism" (to prove the publication had socially redeeming value). There was a Canadian version of photographer Bob Miser who regretted the day the posing strap disappeared! But static images do very little for me. There has to be movement. A lot of people are nostalgic about the times when they were young. I suppose some will look back with fondness on the lousy picture quality of the early videotapes. I myself love watching naked twinks cavorting in crystal clear images on my big widescreen TV. It's never been better.

For me, it's nothing to do with nostalgia -- The vast majority of these images were taken well before I was born, and yet I still love looking at them -- it's like visiting a museum of homoerotic photography.

The drawings either have subtle or not so subtle innuendo. I know there is one about the class nerd helping out all the jocks, among several others. If you know where to find it please please let me know. I've tried everything I know to post some more images here.

Re: New Vintage Pics thread

I Have just recently heard about and got into OLD RELIABLE!! Please could anybody out there who has some of these images please post some more. Here are the ones I have. I will upload some other VINTAGE porn soon!

Re: New Vintage Pics thread

agaymale, loved the Old Reliable pics. I am a big fan of that site, whose owner David Hurlesi is unfortunately recovering from a massive stroke. Thought you might like to know that two of the guys in post 62 (first and third) are serving lengthy prison sentences right now.

Thanks for the welcome . I'm looking forward to the next round of images.

Re: New Vintage Pics thread

Final bits of vintage style art for now. I have a few specialty pieces for the end of next month. Tom of Finland will still come at a later time. And I'm looking for new stuff all the time.

Do you know if they make a whole collection of the artwork pics you posted like "A is for..... and B is for....." I loved those ones that you posted and would love it if they had one for the whole alphabet!

Re: New Vintage Pics thread

No worries, agaymale!

Bob did, indeed do a great job with his thread!

You did a great job with this thread when you were posting, and I am confident that will not change.

There are many jubbers who love the vintage stuff...Now that I have my new scanner, I will even be willing to contribute some classic stuff myself, time permitting, of course. I have quite a collection of mags...

Sir Ron, don't go teasing us!

Here's one of my favorites from the previous thread:

Never regret anything, because in that moment it's exactly what you wanted.

It was logical that starting another vintage pictures thread would have been pointless, and unnecessary.

Yes it was logical, and as I said in the other thread - you don't own a thread just because you created/named it.
This is supposed to be about the community about giving and sharing, about interacting and having fun. There are a lot of other themed threads here with many different contributors and they manage to get along.
But this "I'll take my toys and leave" behavior probably shows more than anything what we were dealing with.
